Solution

The correct option is D furnace
One way of dealing with accumulated waste is to burn it down. It does reduce the volume of waste, but the burning of waste releases a lot of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, thus causing air pollution. That is why, to minimise the air pollution, waste is burned inside a properly designed furnace under very carefully controlled conditions.
